Technical Specifications

How to Use / Installation Guide

1. Measure the Area
Measure the total wall or ceiling area where the smooth board will be installed.

Formula:
Total area ÷ 2.88m² = number of boards required

Add 5–10% extra for cutting, wastage, corners and fitting around openings.

2. Prepare the Surface or Framework
For walling, ensure the surface is dry, clean, firm and level.
For ceilings and partitions, prepare a strong timber or metal framework before fixing the board.

3. Mark and Cut the Board
Mark the required measurements clearly. Cut the board carefully using suitable cutting tools to achieve clean and straight edges.

4. Fix the Board
Fix using appropriate screws, nails, adhesive or recommended fixing method depending on the surface. Ensure the board is properly supported and aligned.

5. Finish the Joints
Use joint filler, trims, mouldings or finishing strips depending on the required final appearance. Keep joints neat for a professional finish.

6. Sand the Edges and Joints
Lightly sand rough edges and joint areas before painting or decorating.

7. Apply Primer
Apply a suitable primer before painting. Primer helps improve paint adhesion and gives a smoother final result.

8. Paint or Decorate
Apply your preferred interior paint, wallpaper or decorative finish. The plain smooth surface makes it easy to match different interior styles.

9. Final Inspection
Check that the boards are firmly fixed, joints are neat, edges are smooth and the surface is clean.

Important Installation Tips

Maintenance

Wipe dust using a soft dry cloth.
